      Day 31 The alternate route to Samos

      6. Juni in Spanien ⋅ ☁️ 70 °F

      Morning walk along the river into the scenic town of Samos. The Benedictine Monestery, built in the sixth century, dominates the view walking into Samos. The quiet, beautiful monestary was amazing. There are currently 8 monks and 2 students living in this enormous structure. Part of it serves as a hostel too. We saw fewer than 10 people on the camino today. Very peaceful. But we keep seeing the same people once we are in town.Weiterlesen

      Spectacular day... climbing ridiculous heights... with a special little bitch of a little climb... the raddler (lemon beer) at the top was exquisite!

      That’s a lot of rain! 🌧️

      18. Mai in Spanien ⋅ 🌫 45 °F

      Today it rained ALL 11.5 miles. 🙃

      My face: “This is the greatest day ever”

      Brett’s face: I hate every minute of this”

      Clearly we have very different perspectives on the day 😜😂

      But regardless we made it. 💪🏽

      Some sweet moments:

      👉🏽The neighbors put out a free spread to all pilgrims, it was a community breakfast, totally free for anyone who needed a bite in their courtyard. It was awesome. I thought this is how we should live everyday.

      👉🏽Going uphill in the rain, in the cold 🥶, in the mud , can test anyone’s faith! I think we passed, barely.

      👉🏽 Brett looks cute in a poncho. She doesn’t think so but I do.

      👉🏽 As we walked we prayed for our friends in our lives, their families and marriages. This was a sacred moment.

      Route Summary:

      Triacastela to Sarria
      Triacastela, Galicia
      11.5 mi, 1129 ft elevation gain

      Route Summary
      The route through San Xil and Pintin to Sarria is a journey through the essence of the Galician landscape. This section of the Camino de Santiago is characterised by its natural and peaceful setting, where the routes weave through lush forests and welcoming villages, reflecting rural life at its best.

      The stage from Triacastela to Montán is a beautiful introduction to the diversity of the Galician landscape, with paths winding through forests and meadows. The small village of Montán, known for its church dedicated to Santa María, offers a haven of peace and spirituality, allowing pilgrims a moment of reflection in the midst of nature.

      Sarria is strategically placed just over the 100Km mark away from Santiago which is the minimum distance to be covered in your pilgrimage for you to be eligible to receive the completion certificate (la Compostela) once you reach Santiago. For this reason, it is the ideal starting place for new Camino walkers.

      Moins de 150 km !

      31. Mai 2023 in Spanien ⋅ ⛅ 18 °C

      Chemin de Compostelle 34/40
      Étape #. 27. Camino francés « Hospital à Samos ». Kilomètres parcourus 26,5 km. Cumulatif : 883,2 km, moyenne 25,9 km par jour. Étapes restantes avant Saint-Jacques de Compostelle : 6 et moins de 128 km à fouler.

      Journée particulièrement encourageante puisqu’à 7h45 ce matin nous franchissions la borne indiquant qu’il nous reste 150 km à fouler pour arriver à Saint-Jacques-de-Compostelle (Santiago, Espagne). Photo. Un peu avant cette borne nous avons dû gravir quelques montées abruptes (25 %) avant d’amorcer une descente raide atteignant par moment 24 % de dénivellation, jusqu’à 700 mètres pendant 7 km. La descente s’est très bien passée.

      Nous avons emprunté un chemin nettement plus traditionnel. Nous sommes chanceux, pas de pluie une température idéale pour marcher et toujours une petite brise par moment.

      Nous avons donc couché 26 bornes aujourd’hui et il nous reste 128 kilomètres avant d’atteindre Saint-Jacques-de-Compostelle (Santiago).
      Nous sommes si près de l’objectif.

      Demain petite journée au bureau et 12 km.

      Buen Camino 🤗

      The final chapter begins

      22. April in Spanien ⋅ 🌙 41 °F

      We began the day with a very cool walk along the highway in the dark and into a wonderful valley of farms and villages. Sadly, it seemed that each village was a remembrance of the past. Most buildings were for sale or abandoned. Mid morning, we reached Samos, and it's monestary from 700 AD. During our walk into Sarria, we joined a recent college grad from Florida and a Spanish grandfather who has walked many of the Caminos (more than 20 times). The vibe in Sarria was different as this is the jumping off point for those that want to complete the last 100k to Santiago. I miss our travel companions and who to meet others during our final week.Weiterlesen

      Day 35 - To Biduedo

      13. Oktober 2022 in Spanien ⋅ ☁️ 13 °C

      Day 35 - To Biduedo
      24 kms; Difficulty
      20-21°C

      Today was the final BIG ascent! Glad that’s behind me. It was pretty darn tough in spots. But there was also a few short trails through the bush which were very pretty. The payoff for the hard work of ascending is the beautiful views!

      The countdown begins!
      I will be in Santiago in
      6 days. I have 640 km behind me, 160 to go. And I have to say I’m looking forward to it. The trail, as beautiful and amazing as it is, is tough. It causes a lot of wear and tear on the body and the soul. And I’m getting tired! ❤️
      The last three pictures are where I’m staying tonight. Casa Quiroga in Biduedo. Population 31!
      Very foggy tonight!!

      Bienvenido a Galicia...

      Wie war dass, mit du brauchst Wandersstöcke und Wanderschuhe? Don't go with the flow, ich sag euch eins, heute ging es den ganzen Tag nur Bergauf und zwar durch Schlamm und Pferdeäpfel mit Outdoor Sneaker und guter Musik in den Ohren. Ja meine Lieben heute habe ich die letzte Region betreten und was soll ich sagen, ich verstehe kein Spanisch mehr weil deren Dialekt ziemlich heftig ist und Dörfer welche mehr Kühe als Menschen haben, besitzen einen Namen obwohl du nicht einmal nachvollziehen kannst wo jetzt genau deren Anfang und Ende war. Abgesehen davon ist die Landschaft wunderschön, grün und voll mit Tieren.

      Als ich heute mit Omi telefoniert habe sagte Sie zu mir: Weißt du eigentlich nun wann du zurück kommst, ich kann deine Rollläden nicht mehr lange unten sehen, es ist traurig wenn ich jeden morgen und abend aus dem Fenster schaue. Nun steht meine Rückkehr fest, es wird auch solangsam Zeit. Da ein Gabelflug direkt nach Deutschland zu teuer gewesen wäre, habe ich mich für einen Zwischenstop entschieden. Ich verrate nicht wohin, aber ein Song von heute morgen hat mich bereits eingestimmt "Vamos a la playa - Loona".

      Sei mutig, treffe eine Entscheidung und geh!

      Bienvenido a Galicia...

      Cos'è questa storia che ti servono bastoni e scarponi da trekking? Non seguite la massa, vi dirò una cosa, oggi è stato tutto in salita per tutto il giorno tra fango e sterco di cavallo con scarpe da ginnastica e buona musica nelle orecchie.
      Sì, cari miei, oggi sono entrata nell'ultima regione e che dire, non capisco più lo spagnolo perché il loro dialetto è piuttosto pesante e i villaggi che hanno più mucche che persone hanno un nome anche se non si capisce nemmeno dove sia l'inizio e la fine. A parte questo, il paesaggio è bellissimo, verde e pieno di animali.

      Quando oggi ho parlato al telefono con nonna, mi ha detto: "Sai quando torni, mi danno fastidio le tue serrande abbassate, è triste non vederti tornare a casa". Ora il mio ritorno è fissato, pian piano è ora e siccome un volo direttamente per la Germania sarebbe stato troppo caro, ho deciso di fare uno scalo. Non vi dirò dove, ma una canzone di stamattina mi ha già messo di buon umore: "Vamos a la playa - Loona".

      Siate coraggiosi, prendete una decisione e partite!

      Triacastela

      30. September 2023 in Spanien ⋅ ☀️ 24 °C

      Noc w albergue powoduje to, że się nie można wyspać i z konieczności jest chęć na wczesne wyjście. Na drodze powitał nas pomimo dość zimnej temperatury ciepły wiatr zwiastujący raczej gorący dzień. Pokonaliśmy dwie dość solidne góry , pierwsza to Alto de San Roque. Tam pojawił się pierwszy pot i zmiana ostrości wzroku. Na szczęście był tam piękny pomnik pielgrzyma przy którym zrobiliśmy sobie zdjęcia, a w tle mieliśmy dopiero wstające słońce, a przed nami jeszcze widoczny księżyc w pełni, była to wręcz niewiarygodna sceneria. Widoki gór kompensują trudy związane z ich pokonywaniem no i tak było i teraz. Drugi szczyt to Alto do Polo, pomimo jego względnej krótkości nazwaliśmy go górą bestią, bo zabrała wszystko co mieliśmy poza chęcią do natychmiastowego wypicia piwa aby zahamować chęć wymiotowania na bezdechu.
      O dziwo widoki i panoramy górskie nie traciły swojego piękna. Potem już generalnie w dół, osaczeni wąwozami zieleni przybierającej coraz bardziej mistyczne kształty,kolory i zapach, to znak że zaczęliśmy pomału zatapiać się w Galicję pełną inności, czaru, magii, innej zabudowy oraz zapachu ( dominującego krowiego aromatu). Przechodząc przez wioski Galicyjskie trzeba się przyzwyczaić do krowich, końskich czy oślich kup, które leżą na drodze i jak nie pada to tylko trzeba patrzeć gdzie się stawia stopy, ale jak pada to wszystko zamienia się w brązowa rzekę. Okrągłe domy pokryte słomą albo specyficznymi kamiennymi dachówkami. Często dół zajmują zwierzęta, a górę ludzie. Na polach koło domu są widoczne prostokątne często bardzo zdobione przewiewne budowle do przechowywania kukurydzy lub innych dobroci ziemi.
      Cały czas drogą w dół dotarliśmy do Tricastela , małego miasteczka , w którym były kiedyś trzy zamki. Dzisiaj nie ma żadnego, przyjechali Wikingowie i zburzyli wszystkie trzy . Został tylko herb z trzema zamkami których kształty zostały wykute na murach tutejszego kościółka pod wezwaniem Santiago, który niestety z powodu choroby miejscowego, jedynego tutaj Księdza pozostaje od jakiegoś czasu zamknięty. Dzień zakończył się dobrym obiadem, ze smakołykami galicyjskimi i rozmowami ze znajomymi.

      Samos (18.8km / 644.6km)

      31. Mai 2023 in Spanien ⋅ ⛅ 12 °C

      Today we were walking on clouds. We descended from 1300m to 600 and when we started we were above the clouds. It was so beautiful. Shannon called us and we had to stop 3 times to show her the view! It is just the best walking in the mountains with the green hills, flowers and views. After second breakfast at the bottom of the mountain we walked along the river to Samos. I think the walk description was written by an optimist describing the river walk through tree lined paths. They forgot to mention the rolling hills which is code for up and down and up and down and …. You get the picture. When we finally turned the corner and saw the monastery we were very relieved.
      Samos is home to the largest monetary in Spain, with cloisters 50m in length. We took a guided tour followed by mass. It was beautiful although not as welcoming as the other monasteries.
      We had delicious food for lunch at a local restaurant/ pub and returned for a desert and a Spanish brandy after mass and before bed.
      All in all a lovely day of beautiful scenery, solid walking, tasty food, interesting sites and good company.
